All power generation units have been returned to service following a disruption to the national power grid, Energy Minister John Abdulai Jinapor has announced.
In a statement, the minister confirmed that power has been fully restored and grid stability secured, crediting the achievement to the round-the-clock efforts of engineers, technicians, and emergency response teams who worked under intense pressure to bring the system back online.
“In the face of a major system disruption, and against all odds, our engineers, technicians, and emergency teams worked around the clock to restore power and stabilise the grid,” Mr Jinapor said.
The minister singled out the leadership and staff of the Ghana Grid Company (GRIDCo), the Volta River Authority (VRA), the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG), and other supporting agencies, praising the inter-agency coordination that made the restoration possible.
“Through their tireless work, discipline, and commitment to country, power has been restored and system stability secured,” he added.
The Minister closed his remarks on a personal note, saying the episode demonstrated what Ghana’s workforce is capable of when the country needs them most.
“This moment shows that even under pressure, Ghana can rely on the strength and skill of its people. May God bless our engineers, our energy sector, and our nation,” he said.
